Abstract:
Minion uses TCP-format packets on-the-wire, to provide full
compatibility with existing NATs, Firewalls, and similar middleboxes,
but provides a richer set of facilities to the application. Minion's
richer facilities include a message-oriented API rather than TCP's
unstructured byte-stream service model, multiplexing of multiple
messages (or message streams) on a single connection, interleaving of
multiplexed messages (to eliminate head-of-line blocking), message
cancellation, request/reply support, ordered and unordered messages,
chained messages, multiple priority levels with byte-granularity
preemption, and DTLS Security.
